We now have 3 buildings for rent. The Cozy Camping Cottage, the Camping Cabin and the newest addition is our A-frame which is the most secluded spot on the land. - Voted best Hipcamp in Indiana to visit for 6 years. - Listed on Rachael Ray Magazine's "8 of America's Coolest Campgrounds" We offer a "Camping Cabin", The "Cozy Camping Cottage" or tent camping in Black Walnut Grove, in an open field, in the woods, or a shady grove. We like to interact with people or you can keep to yourself and have a quiet getaway in the woods. Sorry, but the tree house isn't available to rent since it is my home. I may rent it out in the future. Also in progress is the "Dome" We are on a solar powered, off the grid 30 acre homestead that has 24 acres of wooded land and 6 acres of groomed land. Come explore our land and relax in the "Tree Web", see the 2 story tree house that I live in, have fun on the tire swing, or just sit and enjoy all that nature has to offer. You can explore our interesting topography that has close to 100 foot of elevation changes, our (mostly) dry creek system that starts with 2 springs that drain into 3 sinkholes or walk 3 miles of trails (if you follow each trail from end to end). We love groups - Host your event here or have a group gathering with all your friends and family. We have spaces large enough to host hundreds of people. We welcome pets for camping, but no pets allow in the Camping Cabin. Also be aware that we have 2 friendly dogs on the land that roam freely. - 3.5 miles to Marengo Cave - 7 miles to the Blue River (canoes, rafting and swimming) - 30 minutes to Patoka Lake - 37 miles west of Louisville - 13 miles north of Interstate 64

Camping Cabin
Super Awesome Experience!
Beautiful and secluded stay! It was a wonderful and tranquil trip. We had a blast staying here. We came for a couple days of an all day music festival and we ended up staying at the cabin more than the festival! The host was so friendly and welcoming as well, checking in frequently to make sure we had everything that we needed and ensured we were comfortable. Our stay here was a whole experience, from the outdoor Shower under the open sky to the Tree Net we played on. If you get a chance can to stay here, take it!

Cozy Camping Cottage
Kerry was very friendly and helpful. The camp had unique sites that I haven't seen at other facilities, and the lights above the tree net nest were magical at night. I also enjoyed the big beautiful trees that covered much of the land.
